Mexican

If I am in the States (or anywhere else for that matter) then I like to eat the things that are done better here than can be found in London, or without a serious search anyway.

One of those things is Mexican, so we had to hunt some out, particularly as I get bad burrito cravings. The recommendations were pretty much unanimous, so we headed to the Two Senoritas. Margaritas were necessary to start with, with Coronas after that, as is compulsory with Mexican food. Chips and a perfectly spicy salsa were delivered to our table as we made our decisions. The others hadn’t eaten much Mexican before, so I suggested a platter to share to start with, before we went our own ways for main.

The tacquitos were particularly good from the starters, as were the jalepenos stuffed with sour cream, breaded and deep fried. Most of the other things involved a LOT of cheese, which started to get a bit overwhelming.
I followed with a burrito, with spicy taco meat. I had to check what this was before I ordered it, as I am a bit nervous when something is simply described as meat! However, it was simply ground beef with some added seasoning. I couldn’t get anywhere near finishing it, particularly as it came with rice and refried beans, but it was fun trying. I then had to roll back to the hotel! I have had to run twice as far as normal while I have been here, to try and not pile on the pounds.
